Birthdays

The Birthdays module allows users to add their birthday to their profile. In their profile the date of birth is shown, as well as their age and their star sign. This is all configurable, e.g. it is possible to let users hide their age. It also lists birthdays on a separate page which can be filtered by month and year. Finally 2 blocks are defined to show upcoming birthdays, either a fixed number of birthdays or all birthdays of a specific number of days in advance.

It is optional to send users an e-mail on their birthday congratulating them, and the administrator can receive periodic reminders of who are having their birthday this day, week or month.

These documentation pages give information about installing the module, explains all settings, explains how to customize the module and more.
